Chapter 10

~Jimin's POV~

I know Yoongi Hyung can be cold but I never expected him to be so harsh, especially to (Y/N)'s father. I suppose I too was cold to not help her father when he was in the dungeon. I slightly glare my red eyes at my Hyung, not caring about if he despises me.

"Yoongi, that was too harsh of you to say!! What was the purpose for that?! Other than for your ignorance AND to upset her?" Jin Hyung yells at Yoongi Hyung with rage. I noticed Jin Hyung getting closer to (Y/N) and I cannot be mad at her. Jin Hyung is close to a mother to me and all of us. He watches out for us, feeds us, keeps us in line and he's like a therapist.

But I can be slightly upset because I need to get out of my shell and converse with the beautiful maiden to get close to her. But she's just so pretty on the outside and inside and I'm just..a horrid vampire. I feel as if I will never have a chance with her.

My sickening white, coarse flesh. My sharp, terrifying claws. My scary red eyes. My threatening fangs. My pointy ears constantly show their appearance through my soft hair, as (Y/N) said. But maybe, just maybe, (Y/N) will be able to see past my grotesque self and grow to love me on the inside as I have for her.

I tuned out the arguing, stand up out of my chair, and exited silently without a word. This is my chance. My chance to comfort her and help her understand me- I mean us better. I could faintly hear the argument growing as I venture through my home to the beautiful guest. As I approach her door, I pause my knocking.

She's crying...

I knock on her door and hear a broken voice saying, "Go away.."

My heart was close to shattering as I could just feel the pieces of her heart slowly falling apart. I pause again, thinking if I should leave her to her thoughts or comfort her. I decide to do the second choice as I couldn't just leave her crying.

"I-it's me, Jimin. I wanted to s-see if you were okay. B-but if you don't want t-t talk, that's okay! I-i understand completely and-" The door creaks open and I see a single eye looking at me. It was red but it held a joyful glint like her mood was uplifted.

I smile shyly but retract immediately and turn my back to the doors, feeling very, very insecure about my smile. The doors creak open more and I feel a (short/average/tall) figure on my back, hugging me. I could feel her face laying on my spine/neck/head, her cute, chubby cheek pushing up against it. I pat her small hands to reassure her but she took it as to 'let go'.

"Hello, Jimin. I could use someone to talk to so thank you for coming," (Y/N) says with a small blush on her (S/C) cheeks.

Adorable.

I smile softly, not showing my teeth, and nod. She smiles and I say in concern, "I'm so s-sorry about Yoongi Hyung.." Her smile deflated and I was already regretting saying that to her, seeing her frown made me upset.

She sighs and answers, "I will admit, I'm still upset and I don't plan on forgiving him anytime soon." I nod in agreement as I wouldn't have either. (Y/N) looks down at the floor with her eyebrows slightly knitted together, deep in thought and frustration.

I then ask shyly with a slight blush, "M-may I come in?" She looks up at my face and smiles again, although it was barely noticeable. She nods and moves out of the doorway. I walk in and thank her while moving to sit on her bed. I pat the spot on my right for her to sit. She complies while having a sad look.

"You can t-talk to me. I won't tell any of the boys a-about it, it's our s-secret." I say, looking at her sad face. I don't like the look so I set my very pale hand on hers and she looks up at me with tears threatening to fall. I panic when she throws her arms around me. I slowly wrap my arms around her form as it trembles with her sobs.

I begin to caress her back, calming her slightly as I feel her tears gather on my shoulder. I don't like hearing her cry, it's breaking my heart. After a few minutes, her sobs turn to sniffles as she relaxes in my arms.

~(Y/N) POV~

As I wipe the remaining tears on my face, I pull away from Jimin and continue to sniffle. He gets up to grab a small rag and starts cleaning my face. I feel a blush of embarrassment rise as I probably look like a slobbering baby. He also has a blush redder than mine when he pauses. He's staring into my eyes and I stare into his. Those beautiful rubies are pulling me in, I could see a small hint of pink in them too.

"Jimin? Are you alright?" He blinks fast, breaking his stare. His whole face was as red as his pretty eyes. I feel my ears turn red as I look at my fidgeting hands with a bashful smile.

"U-uhm...I'm s-sorry for staring...You're just..very very pretty." My eyes widen and I feel my whole face turn red at the fast compliment.

"Thank you, Jimin. You're very very handsome too." He then sets both of his hands on his face and I laugh at his adorableness. He lets a cute giggle and my heart races hearing it. There's an awkward silence with both of us blushing our faces off and fidgeting our fingers.

"Do you...do you mind if I just say everything that is troubling me?" I ask nervously.

Jimin replies, "Of course, (Y/N)! I'll try to h-help too!" He sets his hand on mine and squeezes slightly to reassure me.

I ask before I tell, "You won't be upset if I talk about you guys?" He shows me a sad smile and shakes his head to tell me that he won't be upset.

I take a deep breath in and out to calm myself. "To start first, I don't want to be here. You're a very kind man, as well as Jin, V, Jungkook, and Hobi. RM and Suga are different stories. I've done nothing but comply to not anger them but it seems that I cannot do anything correctly! I don't want anything to do with them! I know I cannot leave so soon but I wish they would show me a hint of kindness!"

I finish my sentence with anger in my voice and I feel Jimin's small hand rub circles on my back. I start to tremble, not feeling anger but now sadness. I miss Papa so much and the farm animals. I miss my books too. Huh. I realized I don't have many things to miss. True, my town is boring and I don't get along with anyone there except the children to who I would read but of course, I was judged for doing that.

Jimin says, "I-I cannot say sorry for my hyungs a-as it is their job, b-but I will apologize f-for myself as I did n-not help with you and your f-father. It's unlike m-me to do something against m-my hyung's rules but I-I deeply regret not doing a-anything. I am very s-sorry. Will y-you please forgive m-me, (Y/N)?"

I look at him, conflicted. I would rather hear Suga's and RM's apology than the cutest vampire I've ever seen. I purse my eyebrows in concentration. I'm sure Jimin is nervous about my response so I smile and set my hand on his bicep to reassure him. "I accept your apology, Jimin." He smiles back, showing his fangs with closed eyes and my heart began to race. "You should smile often. It looks beautiful on you."

I throw my hand on my hand, my mouth speaking what I was thinking. Jimin looks at me with wide eyes and a cute blush. We both do the same thing and cover our faces with our hands in embarrassment. After a few seconds, Jimin replies, "T-thank you, (Y-Y/N)...I r-really like your smile t-too.." I smile at him and he gets up, my hand still on his.

"I-I am sure m-my brothers are asleep s-so how about we continue w-with our dinner?" Jimin looks at me hopefully, waiting for my response. I smile and get up with him and he guides me to my door.
